4. I guess I'd better get my advisory committee to make up their minds

so maybe I can hop on the bandwagon, too. We might as well all do it, and then the DNC can just draw a name out of a very large hat.

Seriously, this is getting pretty stupid.

*Update* My advisory committee, consisting of three cats, has just informed me that because I am not popular among my constituency and do not have a strong base of donors, I should just stay home and feed them, so I'm out. Should I send my committee to advise Mayor DiBlasio?

5. I am starting to get really irritated

by the absurd size of the field. Number 1 priority should be to take back the WH and Senate. Anything that disrupts that is very damaging.

14. Cementing another

bad decision by de Blasio.. evidently he's had a few or NYC would be running better.

He's already in the top 3 of Negatives.. and he hadn't even declare yet.

“I want to look at a lot of information,” de Blasio told reporters during a press briefing on Thursday. “The ultimate decision, as I said, is a personal one and a family one, but of course it makes sense to look at other information.”

I still think there's method behind what looks like mass narcissistic delusion.

Maybe the Ds are trying to saturate the political landscape with more targets than Trump can take on.

Maybe the Ds are trying to suck "oxygen" from Trump by having so many Dem candidates "out there".

Maybe the Ds are trying to get lots of future candidates some national name recognition.

Maybe all of the above and more, but I think the "crazy" is the crazy of a fox.

They all know Trump is going to win reelection. They are either trying to increase their name profile for 2024 or to add "former democrat presidential candidate" to their chyron display for the talk show circuit.

Trump only needs to take on the last man standing. Having all those stooges running only burns a lot of $$$ that can be used to push one candidate to the election. It will also cause a lot of division in the party. Chaos is good for Trump

I saw a clip where de blasio was touting his green new deal in Trump tower and people were coming down the escalator behind him with signs saying he is a failure etc.! :-) :-) :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Those are the problems with that tactic if that is what the Dems are doing. The election is almost 18 months away, ample time for Trump pick his targets, and time during which Dems are burning through $$$$. And it has the potential to dwarf the Obama-Hillary and Hillary-Bernie dust-ups. Unless this is tightly choreographed, things could get very :popcorn: ing for us'ns 8 or 9 months from now.

Imagine you are sitting at a table at your local watering hole, drinking Yuengling Lager directly from a bottle. The conversation turns to politics. One of your pals asks "who do you like for 2020?" You suddenly panic.

I really like Biden!

Everyone laughs

someone says...Biden! you want to elect Biden for president! Are you stupid?

Next up:

I really like Bernie!

More people laugh

Bernie? This dude likes Bernie!

:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Moving on to:

I like Mayor Pete!

What? Who is Mayor Pete?

Someone yells out "He's that dude that thinks he's a chick. They call him Alfred E. Neuman!

The reality of the situation is that you couldn't fill a single page with a list of acomplishments of the whole bunch of them. they are all just political hacks making a living off of us looking for some campaign $$ to piss away and a lot of media attention.

When you listen to their promises it makes you wonder who their base is, other than illegals and professional bums, they offer nothing but higher taxes for the rest of us. :thatsright: :mental:

Look at it this way, if you were to take the very best aspect of each of your...what is it now about 78?... candidates you could create one great...nope... very good...nope again...fairly good...still nope...not terrible...my bad...it looks like y'all may be screwed.
